The eminent Edward MacLysaght, MA D Litt says, in his Surnames of Ireland, that the name is derived from O'Tuathail. He says that it is a County Derry sept whose location is indicated by the parish of Desertoghill. It was anglicised as O'Tuohill, and Jolm O'Donovan "Name Books" 1830-1840, found it in the late 18th century to be Toghill and then Tohill. The few Irish births recorded on the LDS (Mormon) IGI fiches are listed under "Touhill". My third cousin, Willie McPeake, of Portglenone, DetTy, writes: "the name had a lot of different spellings, Tuohill, Toughill, Toghill, while the names were spelt slightly different in the 1831 census to the 190 l census".
The Stourbridge School of Art and Its Relations with the Glass Industry of the Stourbridge District, 1850-1905

A PROVINCIAL SCHOOL OF ART AND LOCAL INDUSTRY: THE STOURBRIDGE SCHOOL OF ART AND ITS RELATIONS WITH THE GLASS INDUSTRY OF THE STOURBRIDGE DISTRICT, 1850-1905 by JAMES SCOTT MEASELL A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of History College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham April 2016 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

ABSTRACT Founded in 1851, the Stourbridge School of Art offered instruction in drawing, art and design to students engaged in industries, especially glass. Using social history methodology and primary sources such as Government reports, local newspapers and school records, this thesis explores the school’s development from 1850 to 1905 and explicates its relationships with the local glass industry. Within the context of political, economic, social and cultural forces, the school contributed to the town’s civic culture and was supported by gentry, clergy and industrialists. The governing Council held public meetings and art exhibitions and dealt with management issues. Working class men attended evening classes. Women from wealthy families attended morning classes.

PARTIES OR POLITICS: Wellington's I.R.A. 1922-1928

Parties or Politics: Wellington’s I.R.A. 1922-28 PARTIES OR POLITICS: Wellington's I.R.A. 1922-1928. The Anglo-Irish Treaty, signed in London in December 1921 and ratified in Dublin in January 1922, was a watershed for Irish communities abroad, albeit in a different sense than for those in Ireland. For the New Zealand Irish the Treaty creating the Irish Free State represented a satisfactory outcome to a struggle which for six years had drawn them into conflict with the wider New Zealand community. Espousing the cause of Ireland had been at a cost to domestic harmony in New Zealand but with ‘freedom’ for the homeland won, the colonial Irish1 could be satisfied that they done their bit and stood up for Ireland. The Treaty was an end point to the Irish issue for most Irish New Zealanders. Now it was time for those ‘at home’ to sort out the details of Ireland’s political arrangements as they saw fit. Political energies in New Zealand would henceforth be expended instead on local causes. For many Irish New Zealanders by 1922 this meant the socialist platform of the rising Labour Party. But not every local Irish patriot was satisfied with the Treaty or prepared to abandon the Republican ideal. Die-hard Republicans – and New Zealand had a few - saw the Treaty as a disgraceful sell-out of the Republic established in blood in Easter 1916. Between 1922 and 1928 therefore, a tiny band of Irish Republicans carried on a propaganda struggle in New Zealand, which vainly sought to rekindle the patriotic fervour of 1921 among the New Zealand Irish in support of the Republican faction in Ireland.
The Green Ray and the Maoriland Irish Society in Dunedin, 1916-1922

“SHAMING THE SHONEENS1 ”: the Green Ray and the Maoriland Irish Society in Dunedin, 1916-1922. Irish issues played an unusually divisive role in New Zealand society between 1916 and 1922. Events in Ireland in the wake of the Easter 1916 Rising in Dublin were followed closely by a number of groups in New Zealand. For some the struggle for Irish independence was scandalous, a threat to the stability of Empire and final proof, if any were needed, of the fundamental unsuitability of Irish (Catholics) as citizens in New Zealand, the Greater Britain of the South Pacific.2 For others, particularly the ‘lace curtain’ Catholic bourgeoisie, events in Ireland were potentially a source of embarrassment, threatening to undermine a carefully cultivated accommodation between Irish ethnic identity, centred on the Catholic Church, and civic respectability amidst New Zealand’s Anglo- Protestant majority population.3 For a third group the rebellion and its aftermath were a stirring realisation of centuries old hopes, an unlooked for opportunity to fulfil the revolutionary dreams of generations of dead Irish patriots. This essay seeks to cast some fresh light on Irish issues in New Zealand from 1916 to 1922 by looking at a small group of ‘advanced Irish nationalists’ in Dunedin. These people were few in number and have left little evidence of their activities, let alone their motivations, organisational dynamics or long- term achievements. Yet their presence in Dunedin at all is worthy of some attention. There were genuine Irish ‘Sinn Féiners’ in New Zealand, recent arrivals who claimed intimate connections with ‘the martyrs of 1916’.

HMRC contend that the charges should bear VAT at the standard rate; the local authorities disagree. 2. In case management of the appeals (of which there is a large number) it was directed that: (1) Consideration may need to be given to the statutory provisions relating to local authorities in the constituent parts of the UK, which vary by jurisdiction. (2) A single lead case (Tribunal Procedure Rule 5(3)(b) refers) should be identified for each of the three territorial jurisdictions: England & Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. (3) The nominated lead cases were Chelmsford City Council (TC/2011/7816) for England & Wales; Midlothian Council (TC/2011/7844) for Scotland; and the Appellant for Northern Ireland.
